Lifesaving

Lifesaving

An act that has the potential to save lives. A soul guard. Preventing the death of human beings.

("He saves souls with a true witness, and he deceives with lies" - a proverb of the hand of Yad Koch, and so on: "The Lord said to him, You have opened the door, begin by saving the souls of your life, for there is no one to open the door, for you shall not open it except in your own heart" - at the beginning of Rava (Vilna) Parashah and he sat down again, and so on: "A man's risk to himself is like saving a soul from Israel And in addition, he fell and was killed" - Agnon/Even Now, Even Now and Their Eyes, 306, and so on: "Gentlemen, do you have permission to stand here... What is the matter of permission in the shadow of the salvation of souls? - Agnon/In Our Youth and in Our Old Age, 228, and so on: "Not a few souls did he save in the pursuits of others who were wounded in the valley" - H. Sabato/The Coming of the Spirit, 127)
